NOTE: A Health Check can be part saved at any point by clicking Finish. You may want to do this if you take bloods during the Health Check which are sent to a lab. Codes will be generated for all data entered into the template; these can then be added into the clinical system. A second Health Check will be needed once the blood results are back to complete the Health Check. Note, these patients will remain listed in the Eligible Patients cohort until the ‘Health Check Completed’ code is added. |
